And Brad Stevens is either a brilliant friggin coach, or a magician. Give him a star or two on that team and see what happens. Wow.
me, I saw it.
Stevens is brilliant. The sum of the parts is greater than the total on this roster. They are loaded with guys who would be role players on better teams.
Getting players to buy into the system is all that coaches can do in today's NBA, especially if you don't have a Holy Trinity on your roster.
Kelly O is considered "soft", yet he saved his best game for after he was bulldozed to the floor by Oubre (sp?). I have to believe Stevens was in his head tonight and it worked.
Give Stevens a little more, and he'll be considered right up there with the best coaches in the league.
